  • Healthy Living: Why NOT to Have a Pap Smear

    As my readers know, I only write if asked to or someone is in trouble and needing honest answers. Thanks to internet manipulation when it comes to all things medical and pharmaceutical, one could be forgiven for thinking they have the facts when all they have is the spin and propaganda. I have a few questions before we get to the nitty gritty - ​ Doctors - WHY do you DO pap smears? Honestly. I know you cannot even answer this. Not without rushing off to read up to make sure you have a sound answer which will suitably baffle your reader or patient. The fact is, there is no sound reason, is there? How many cases of cervical cancer have any of your papping efforts detected? No, seriously. How many? On the flip side, try and remember how many false positives your papping efforts came back with. THERE we go - more, isn't it? I really struggle with the knowledge that anyone who took the Oath can gladly force a sexually assaulted female to go through such a procedure - where did you check your brains and heart out when you put on that white coat? What else on this planet forces a woman into such a position to be invaded in such a vile way? Have you told your patients that the new non invasive HPV test is about to be rolled out, or that they can wait - or are you rushing through as many as you can? Did you know, or even care, that there are more effective, less invasive testing methods that your medical association is trying to cover up and ban? Ladies - WHY do you HAVE pap smears? Again, I know you cannot answer. Other than 'because I was told I had to'. Chances are; if you are medically-trained you will rattle some obscure comment off about it being preventive medicine. It's not. I cannot believe any woman would gladly lay in that position and have such obscene desecration (under the euphemism procedure) done when it is not necessary. Even worse, force your daughters to do it. Have you been told by your doctor or well-meaning medical receptionist who diligently re-calls you every year, that the new HPV test is about to be rolled out, or that you can wait - or are they rushing you through while they can, 'because you have to'? I write this as a female, mother, former nurse and practitioner. I hated being involved in such 'procedures' when I was a nurse and as a female I eventually refused to take part in what I saw as sexual assault. Too harsh? Let me explain why I feel this way (and thanks to my niece for reminding me to bring this up again, as it seems too many women are agreeing to this unnecessary insult to the female gender - after all, men can refuse a digital probe....) Sadly the internet is swamped with guilting and arrogant advertising forcing women to have them. Few even know why. Ask any medical expert and they will say 'because you have to' - ask any woman and she will say 'because you have to' - few care there are more false positive results than real positives. Flimsy 'stats' are thrown around - do you know the real stats? Mutilating women's bodies as a 'preventative' It's a subject I have written about previously, but because it's one of those blindly followed things I usually don't say much. But the time has come. I believe they are useless and nothing more than certifiable, patronising domination. Sounds harsh I know but that is how I see it. I have witnessed women so traumatised they can never let even their own husbands near them again, but it's the only way the system knows how to deal with women. Doctor's true story about why she does not have pap smears This is a female doctor's view - wait for the penny to drop! Some of the responses here underscore why they are not necessary - a REALLY good read. Hear from other women about why you do NOT need a pap smear. Most damaging of all, this one test can detect ANY cancer type - not remotely invasive! Really damning scientific evidence to prove that there no reason to ever have such a probe done, people are not even being told about the new HPV testing due to commence in a mere matter of months either. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3236568/ If this has been known at least since 2011 (MUCH longer by many of us if we are honest) by experts with irrefutable evidence (for those who demand the most intricate of scientific proof) I wonder a) how many women will be rushed through before the newer testing begins even though they could wait it out safely, and b) will the new test do away with needless HPV vaccines? The most obscene truth in all of this, is the profit and problem situation with the REAL reason pap smears are promoted at every juncture. Do you know, or care, which pharmaceutical companies are involved? Or whether it's a massive push to promote vaccines? It goes WAY deeper than you could imagine - and has little to do with your reproductive health. The dirty truth behind pap smears FYI - more info on non invasive testing that is not only far superior to anything else out there, but your government works hard to ban it. Do your research but whatever you do, do not agree to this unnecessary assault.

  • Mismanagement of IBS

    Ask anyone with chronic abdominal pain and a plethora of symptoms that all focus around our digestive system, if they would consider IBS a the minor issue that the media and medical system make it out to be, and they’d probably scratch your eyes out. WHAT IS A SYNDROME? According to Merriam-Webster, it is a group of signs or symptoms; that is all – not a disease, not a diagnosis per se. It is a collection of signs and symptom sets, so it can be thoughts, emotions, feelings, outward appearance, sensory reactions and yes, even visible/obvious symptoms; but can be part of many disease states, and is not necessarily a disease in and of itself. Usually given to states that cannot be tested for or diagnosed. SO WHAT IS IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME? IBS – as a GP friend once happily told me – is a collection of symptoms that basically mean abdominal pain that is unexplained. Wow, what a very simple explanation – the truth is, there is much, much more to it – and medicine is failing millions, if not billions of sufferers around the world. And yet, I would consider IBS is a friend – because without these symptoms, you would not even realise there is anything amiss. The truth here is that your body has most likely been trying to tell you since you were born but it wasn’t until the pain and other symptoms got to the point they would no longer be ignored, that you took yourself off to the doctor and were told that you have IBS. While it can be part of many genetic or pathological diseases such as Crohn’s or Coeliac disease, it can be just the body’s pre-warning system – one that is usually ignored until symptoms develop into another diagnosis such as bowel cancer or diverticulitis. EARLY WARNING SIGNS AND WHEN TO TAKE ACTION Most people will go home happy in the knowledge they finally have a diagnosis; and are happy to go on, take a pill for the pain and do nothing else. At least until the symptoms worsen to the point that their digestive system is literally dying. Then your doctor may well tell you that you have ulcers or cancer or need a colostomy bag. Yes, it really is that bad. See why IBS is your friend? It’s time to take action. Let’s follow the timeline of your IBS. During gestation, most women find it okay to eat for two. That old wive’s tale is just that; she is not eating for two. In fact, the growing baby only needs nutrients, not food. The bulk of that food will sit on the mother's hips & sadly stay there. But that is another story entirely. The growing baby only needs a good balance of nutrients; that is why expectant mothers who take wholefood supplements and plant based diets eventually give birth to healthier babies than those who do not. ‘BUT THERE WAS NO WARNING….’ Everything the mother puts into and onto her body will affect the baby in some way. Giving in to ridiculous cravings are not only damaging her but also the new cells growing at a rapid rate; are you feeding good cells or unhealthy cells? Add DNA to that – aka hereditary, and the new life arrives with an imprint of health. Or ill health. The new baby will already have all the cells it will needs for full body function, including digestive lining, plus precursors to enzymes and hormones. This is where the future of the new person’s health is already founded. After birth, depending on the diet, the perfectly formed gastric lining comes under assault. Iridologically, you will see the picture clearly from birth. I love to look into irises of newborns! Is there an acid ring around the bowel area? Are there already pockets showing inherited disorders and weaknesses? Believe it or not, toxins already show up – based on what was consumed during pregnancy (and including the biological father's own habits), and what the umbilical tube and then liver/kidneys could not excrete. The most perfect food is mother’s milk, but if the mother eats rubbish, that new baby is already suffering. colic is just one of the few obvious symptoms something is already wrong. Poor immunity is never medically linked to the bowel; the truth is, that is exactly the source of all future illness, including chronic and terminal. Infant formula will keep the child alive but it will not offer anything by way of all the micronutrients, enzymes or factors that mother’s milk does, that the child needs. If a child is born by caesarian section, natural bacterial/probiotic processes will not occur. One of the most vital aspects is transfer of the original beneficial bacteria during the birth process, which in turn sets about an entire lifelong chain of reactions. Through life, if that child is not given the right foods and is allowed to live on what has become the normal standard western diet, immune function will weaken – eventually forcing the individual to succumb to a huge array of what is now accepted as part of early aging. Yet, if the original pregnant mother lived on truly healthy food, then the baby was at first breastfed, and then prevented from the assault of sugars, processed grains, dairy, meat and additives, the entire quality of life and vitality would be a polar opposite. BUT I CAN JUST TAKE AN ANTACID OR NEXIUM AND IT WILL BE OKAY… My pet peeve right now is the flogging of NEXIUM for indigestion. If you have indigestion change your diet. Your body is screaming that you are harming yourself. Even more unbelievable is that Nexium is being marketed for babies! Do you have a clue what is in Nexium or even care what the side effects are? Like all other indigestion type medications, it’s nothing more than a string of unpronounceable ingredients, including - Crushed bug bodies Talc (known to cause adhesions) Acrylic Polysorbate 80 (linked to brain, kidney and uterine damage) Aluminium - and a real gutful of what amounts to a poison cocktail with a little adulterated magnesium thrown in for good measure (ironically, taking Mg alone is a very good thing for indigestion, cramping or any other sort of pain ). For the record, what are just a few of the known side effects of Nexium? Remember, this is taken to address the symptoms of indigestion; check out the digestive side effects. And don’t forget, you can check this out on the manufacturer’s website, as can your doctor or pharmacist. Note, this is not the full list that is available if you know where to look. All because you cannot possibly eat healthy… Dizziness, confusion (can anyone say Alzheimers?) Fast or uneven heart rate (but don’t worry, it’s not related to indigestion) Jerking muscle movements and jittery feeling (legal high) Diarrhea that is watery or bloody (better go and get that bowel cancer screening) Muscle cramps, muscle weakness or limp feeling Cough or choking feeling Seizure (convulsions) Headache, drowsiness Nausea, stomach pain, gas, constipation Dry mouth Gout symptoms Abdomen enlarged Allergic reaction Back pain and chest pain, substernal chest pain Oedema Hot flushes Fatigue, fever, flu-like disorder (chronic fatigue? Don’t worry, they’ve got a flu vaccine…) Hypertension & tachycardia Goitre Earache, tinnitus Anaemia Lymphadenopathy Epistaxis Leukocytosis, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia (blood cell disorders) Hepatic function abnormal Diabetic symptoms – glycosuria, hyperuricemia, hyponatremia, increased alkaline phosphatase, thirst, vitamin B12 deficiency, weight increase, weight decrease Musculoskeletal: arthralgia, arthritis aggravated, arthropathy, cramps, fibromyalgia syndrome, hernia, polymyalgia rheumatica Nervous System/Psychiatric: anorexia, apathy, appetite increased, confusion, depression aggravated, dizziness, hypertonia, nervousness, hypoesthesia, impotence, insomnia, migraine, migraine aggravated, paresthesia, sleep disorder, somnolence, tremor, vertigo, visual field defect Reproductive: dysmenorrhea, menstrual disorder, vaginitis; Respiratory: asthma aggravated, coughing, dyspnea, larynx edema, pharyngitis, rhinitis, sinusitis; Skin and Appendages: acne, angioedema, dermatitis, pruritus, pruritus ani, rash, rash erythematous, rash maculo-papular, skin inflammation, sweating increased, urticaria; Special Senses: otitis media, parosmia, taste loss, taste perversion; Urogenital: abnormal urine, albuminuria, cystitis, dysuria, fungal infection, hematuria, micturition frequency, moniliasis, genital moniliasis, polyuria; Visual: conjunctivitis, vision abnormal. OTHER DIGESTIVE SYMPTOMS CAUSED BY NEXIUM Dyspepsia Dysphagia Dysplasia GI Epigastric pain Eructation (burping) Oesophageal disorder Frequent stools Gastroenteritis, GI haemorrhage Pharynx disorder Rectal disorder Serum gastrin increased Tongue disorder Tongue oedema Ulcerative stomatitis Vomiting … hang on…. SEVERE interactions with heart medication and sedatives…. (yet many take Nexium to counteract effects of other meds) ‘MY DOCTOR TOLD ME I HAVE TO LIVE ON THIS BLAND DIET…’ This is where medicine steps in to ensure that pattern remains – milky white, sugary and meaty diets, drugs with side effects, surgery which only results in part function of the entire system, chronicity in bowel habits and associated disease – all linked back to that poor bowel that never stood a chance. One vital to remember here is that doctors are not trained in nutrition and many medical dieticians are also trained from the same books as medical students – funded and published by food and pharmaceutical industry rather than natural health experts. How does a human being, designed to eat raw, healthy food, become so unwell that they cannot tolerate the very food that will heal them? Yet this is exactly what happens with food sensitivities and allergies. As a baby, they were already acidic. Medications will never correct that; just mask it. By the time the individual has reached that terrible, deficient health state, the digestive lining is so damaged that even the most basic function is not possible. SO HOW DO WE CORRECT IT? If you have abdominal pain, indigestion, either chronic diarrhoea or constipation that are unexplained; and if food aggravates all of these symptoms, you will fall under the banner of IBS – irritable bowel ‘syndrome’ – which is a collection of seemingly unrelated symptoms. They ARE related and it is all down to our diet and lifestyle. If you are tired of the pain, bloating and discomfort, I’d say you have little to lose. But much to gain. See my posts on the diet – please! It’s not a suggestion, it’s a demand IF you want to get better. You have been warned by your body; this is not a 50% half hearted stab at something. If you want full health you will put in everything you have to get well. Or you should. You are welcome to take my online assessment if you want your entire health picture assessed – far more comprehensive than any other consult or protocol and will deal with your entire body holistically. Just like your IBS didn’t just happen overnight or by one fluke cause, your healing will not happen with one magic medicine that simply masks the symptoms. Heal your gut. Heal your body at a cellular level. An Edenic level. First thing in the morning, line the digestive tract with a fine film – it prevents irritation, inflammation and pain like nothing else can – Order here Probiotics and soothing herbs – Order here Alkalising minerals – Order here Homeopathic soothing remedy - Order here Your symptoms did not just happen. It may take a little more effort to unwind the long process which landed you here. #IBScare #IBStreatment #naturalIBStreatment #Nexiumdangers #Nexiumisnotsafe #Nexiumisapoison #TreatIBS #CureIBS

  • pH - THE vital component of nutrition & dieting

    There are so many diets out there today - many which almost hit the mark but still don't quite get it. Many people ask ‘how’ to lose weight, or how to achieve the right pH. The truth is, if you are asking, it means you are keen to try anything & unfortunately do. There are simple steps to ensure we reach optimal balance and stay that way. It is by no means easy to do, and there is no one single measure that will do it for us, but unless geographically you are unable to access even the basics, you too can treat chronic health issues and avoid acute ones. You can even join the growing band who do not respond to the myriad contagions in our air and water. I am not joking when I say we can be exposed to colds, flu, gastro, etc and have no fear of ‘catching’ (in reality, being acidic/unhealthy enough to have a weak immune system). The following are examples for Australia but you can do a little Googling to find someone who can ship them to your area. It is not expensive to be alkaline, not if you do a little homework to find the most effective gadgets – yes, it can cost a lot but it does not have to. FOOD Merely to lose weight – weightloss should only ever be a happy side effect of healthy living. But food choices are destroying our health every single day. And that is as much psychological as it is physical. We form habits and in turn the gut/blood/brain barrier is affected so the vicious cycle continues. It takes great willpower to change but once you do it is almost impossible to go back. SUPPLEMENTATION Nutraceutical brands who advertise heavily on TV; at first glance you may say “Yay, it’s finally legal for naturopathy to advertise.” Nothing could be further from the truth. You may even say they must be the best brands – even further from the truth. It is guaranteed, that if everyone reading this had a bioresonance test to determine their deficiencies, not one person would report 100% balance in all nutrients. The best testing method available in regards to deficiencies and individual health issues is bioresonance, yet it is illegal to freely use or advise on the results. You will soon see why scientists early last century determined that over 90% of the population were suffering some deficiency. And that was before the introduction of all the toxicity in our food chain today. For many reasons, the main being we get our food from the ground and our soil and groundwater/tapwater is tainted/deficient. I like superfood/herbal tonics. If you just can’t stomach the food types or volumes, make sure you get a green blend supplement & a basic trace mineral supplement (colloidal). And contrary to what our ‘nutritionists’ say, we NEED oils – good oils, not those high-heat rubbishy oils in plastic bottles – it must be cold pressed and there are MANY good oils – 90% of oils on supermarket shelves should be banned – they are complete rubbish depending on the ignorant masses who like to fry everything to death. Do not make the mistake of putting a cold pressed essential fatty acid oil into the same dirty basket as lard or dairy fat. WATER I’d comfortably say most people I know don’t like water. How sad. Along with air, water is THE most important factor of life. You can survive without food, but not without water. And much of the world’s water is so tainted it’s toxic. That doesn’t mean (as I hear many say) that you have to boil it to death – filtering, ozonating, alkalizing, ionising – these are what makes good water. And with a good mineral quota, by taking in a good volume of water daily, you are doing more for your health than you know. Now, please don’t go and ruin it by making coffee, regular tea, cordial etc – or think by drinking a huge volume of beer or fizzy drinks that you are doing something beneficial. You’re not. Make sure that you occasionally add Himalayan or Celtic salt – these are full of electrolytes – in fact you can make your own electrolyte or sports drink by dissolving the crystals in purified water with a little lemon juice added. Remember, for every other drink you have, you will need another glass of water to undo any effects. Unless you are just adding fresh lemon juice, herbs or good salt. GADGETS There are many gadgets that ensure good health – and most kitchens don’t have a single one of them. The stove is the most important appliance in most kitchens – second to the kettle and toaster – neither of these things really contributes to truly good health. The humble fridge is next in line but is usually so overstocked with rubbish that there is no room for fresh, healthy food and drink that it joins the others to form a toxic team that is pulling our health collectively into the grave. If you want the Rolls Royce appliances and gadgets, you can pay big money and in a perfect world, we would each have them. But the good news here is that there are economical equivalents that are readily available. Buy them one by one to make your kitchen a place of health, rather than a place of unhealthy indulgence. A strong blender – even a cheapie bullet gadget will do more for your health than just about anything. A good juicer – one that really smashes the cell walls of the plants, and keeps in a ton of the fibre, is the next. A dehydrator will allow you to make amazing rawfood snacks that most people wouldn’t even believe is healthy. A steamer – even a steaming basket in a saucepan will allow you to lightly cook anything. pH TESTING PEN or strips Your pH must be around 7.4 (optimum) and initially you’ll need to test your urine a few times a day. Eventually you’ll only need to test it once a week or so as you can ‘feel’ your pH. The basic strips sold on this site provide relative pH and are suitable for this purpose once you understand the process. WATER FILTER Let’s face it, most bottled waters are rubbish and if they weren’t when they went into the bottle (some purine glacier in the mountains of untouched territory), they will be. Anything stored in regular plastic has the capacity to trigger many types of cancer – phthalates are shocking and take little time to form, while BPA in plastic is a known carcinogen, especially in heated temps. Tap water, contrary to what we are told, is atrocious. I once had some tested – 82 abnormalities were detected – chemicals, parasites, chlorine bleach, ammonia, fluoride (Hitler’s last hoorah – a waste product from nuclear weaponry), pathogens. And boiling it will only concentrate the contents. Bore water is the same – in fact, it has the added bonus of being tainted with all forms of waste in the soil – dumping of chemicals and various unwanted waste all leeches into groundwater (ever wonder about that smell?) A simple water filter (preferably non PCB/BPA) will suffice in removing 99% of the waste you don’t want in your water. ALKALINE STICKS Some expensive machines filter, ozonate, ionise and alkalise. And they cost more than the average household can afford. Instead, I use alkaline rods that are basically mineral salts encased in stainless steel, that last for 2 years. They basically sit in your water jug and alkalise your water. Like I said previously, contrary to what some people believe, drinking alkaline water is not the holy grail of getting your pH balanced but it is a part of – or should be – your perfect dietary regime. Find them in our online store. OZONATOR Ozone generation should be part of every home – able to kill parasites, moulds, pathogens – while sanitising the area – this is a must if you are serious about your health. I use mine to clean the air and water, taking out what just shouldn’t be there. It is the final step in filtration and some of the more expensive water machines can cost from $100 to over $1000 for doing all necessary steps. These gadgets wont win any medals for beauty but when it comes to health, who cares? The uses are endless and considering the average human being is made up of trillions of bacteria and various pathogens, we have to carry at least millions of unwanted ones – especially if we have poor immunity or chronic illness. Mould and fungi are linked to everything from skin disorders to chronic fatigue – even MS and cancer. There are other simple gadgets to use when there is a known mould disorder, such as simple argon zappers – and while they can cost thousands you can also get a home-use version for a reasonable price. SODA AKA bicarb, baking soda, bicarbonate of soda, sodi bic. This is THE alkaline salt of choice that we all should take above and beyond all supplements. While it will never remove illness if it is the only step taken in the hope of getting healthy, it is a vital step in BEING and STAYING healthy. All you have to do is google baking soda protocol to see how many people with chronic, even terminal health disorders have managed to successfully treat themselves when medicine failed. The ONLY reason it is not flying off the shelves as a near cure all is because drug companies cannot patent or make a trillion from it. Instead, they educate doctors to say it is a toxic poison. Funny that. Feel out of sorts? Take some bicarb. Tummy upset? Don’t rush out for gaviscon, take some bicarb. Feel a cold coming on? Yes, take some bicarb. Get your pH right and the truth is, it’s impossible to just get sick or ‘catch’ an illness. BLENDER Every home should have a blender. In seconds you can make icecream, sorbet, gelato, milks, puddings, cream, soup, smoothies, mayonnaise, dressings, slushies – all healthy, all dairy-sugar-wheat-additive free. So simple. I have so many recipes now but there are more out there – Shelley Redford-Young, Sunny Raw Kitchen, Russell James, Green Smoothie Girl My blender is used for just about every meal. As a result, we NEVER need to buy mayonnaise or dressings, sauces, cream, icecream, gelato, sorbet, milkshakes, hommus or dips – imagine just the financial savings. But more than that, you can ensure the tastiest meals and treats that only take seconds to whip up. Being healthy will never mean you have a bland diet. A breakfast smoothie of avocado, banana, orange, frozen berries, celery, carrot, beetroot, ginger, maca powder, soaked almonds and spinach will give you more nutrients than most people will take all day in a western ‘balanced’ diet. You can superboost it and add acai, supergreen powders, flax oil, hemp seeds, chia seeds, etc. No one will know. And while we’d all like a Vitamix, who has $1000 to throw around? I made do for years, with a heavy motor Breville and a cheaper magic bullet – you can buy the equivalent for about $25 in Kmart… I managed to find a pay as you go system for a Vitamix and as handy as it is to make raw soups and nut milks, I can honestly say my cheapie bullet is used more every day. Only difference is that you can leave the vitamix on for longer. And it makes excellent raw soup. JUICER Anyone wonder why Boost Juice is always surrounded by dozens of keen customers? What is usually seen as an expensive treat when you are out, can be done at home for a fraction of the price. It’s been estimated, that with the low quality of fruits and vegetables today, we’d need to eat 4kgs just to get what we NEED to be healthy. I don’t know many who can do that and besides, the fibre present would be massive. Instead, why not concentrate it and put it through a juicer? Suddenly, 1kg of raw food becomes a glass of nutrient concentrate that tastes magic. Think of it as a multi vitamin in a glass, rather than something people only take advantage of when out… And if you grow your own herbs and vegetables – all those leaves and stalks that usually get thrown away can first become a nutrient shot, then the waste given to the chooks or thrown into the compost. DEHYDRATOR I can put 4 or 5 kgs into my dehydrator and in a day or so you have jars of fruit leather (banana, strawberries, pears, mango) that tastes nothing like the rank commercial stuff – a container of ‘facon’ which is made from marinated eggplant and liquid smoke – a jar of sundried tomatoes and capsicum, ‘raw’ biscuits that make even the fussiest eaters knock them off in minutes – a jar of dried apple and banana, sweet potato chips. It is a little time consuming but once you get the hang of it you wont believe what you can make – cheesecakes, pizza bases, cakes, pies, slices – and more – reducing your shopping bill while increasing variety. And because nothing is technically cooked, you are getting the benefit of 100% raw food. Considering anything from 50 – 100% of nutrients can be cooked out by regular means, dehydrating is one of the best ways to ensure increased nutrient intake. There is more – spiral ‘pasta’ and ‘curly fry’ makers, graters, slicers – the list is endless. But it is very easy to become healthy. SO WHY IS THIS DIET MORE HEALTHY? To be truly healthy, to be able to avoid illness and premature aging, from a cellular level, to reverse many genetic disorders and to ensure immunity from contagions – as well as maintaining the best weight for you, there is really only one way to go. Some modern popular diets follow this trend but still include meat and dairy without understanding that there is no need. Include as much raw food as possible. Many ‘experts’ will deny this is all possible just by diet – they obviously haven’t tried it. Most people don’t realise that you are not just what you eat, but what you don’t eat. Every single day we bombard our bodies with foods we just cannot break down, so not only does every cell react badly in different ways, but by avoiding whole, super foods, we are not nourishing our bodies. A medically trained nutritionist will tell you that if your body doesn’t need it, it will just pass through , and if you have no appetite, that is fine because your body will cope. None of this is true – you may survive but you wont thrive. The whole purpose of food is to nourish our bodies, but what are we doing? Filling ourselves with useless, nutrient deficient ‘foods’ and wondering why, generation after generation the human race is getting sicker and sicker; weaker and weaker. The good news is that we can change it. But the word change is vital – no magic pill, that idea is a science fiction lie. It takes effort and dedication. And yes, you survive , but who wants to be barely living, just for the sake of enjoying one or two minutes of food, when doing it the right way can allow you to really live, free of pain and inflammation? Rather than the myriad utensils and appliances our kitchens are filled with, we need to change that entire way of thinking. On this diet you will rarely use your oven, frypan, toaster, mixmaster or kettle. Instead, you’ll have a water filter, soda stream, alkaline stick, steamer, a dehydrator and a blender. And you’ll use them all the time. And instead of sugar, flour, salt, meat, milk, cheese, white rice and pasta, you’ll have frozen berries, tons of raw greens, nuts, alkaline fruits, superfoods and sea salt. The funny thing is, the food actually tastes heaps better. And you’ll wonder how you ever ate any other way. This is not to say you can never have any of the old stuff ever again – you can, but just on occasion. In fact, so long as you balance 80% healthy to 20% ‘regular’ food, you will thrive and you will see your life change before your eyes. Just remember, this 20% rule does not mean your food intake should be 20% junk. Acids are present in every painful or inflammatory reaction in the body. Our body needs certain acids but foods that make up the staple of our diets – sugars, processed foods, bread, pastry, biscuits and stimulants, all cause severe chemical reactions in the body – dumping acidic and toxic waste into cells and in turn affecting joints, organ function, blood balance – even nervous system processes. We all need to eat food that is more alkaline, but especially so for chronically unwell people, to bring our bodies back to a decent, pain free and sickness free pH balance. Note, that medicines, drugs, even moods can cause acidic reactions in the body. This news is not new but has not been taken in by mainstream medicine. Dr Hay proved in the 1930s that sickness and pain virtually disappear if the right food is first eliminated and then the body is detoxed, followed by alkaline and neutral foods. Of course, many people find it easier to live on drugs or suffer than give up the foods and drinks that they love. Why, I do not know – I would rather abundant health any day than relying on medicine to keep me alive (of sorts, anyway). This diet is safe and healthy for every human being and many animals. Nutrients are actually absorbed, as opposed to regular diets where food lies stagnant and fermenting in the gut and bowel and is eliminated without much being used at all. A few things need to be considered but the benefits are endless. Firstly, a very real detox needs to be undertaken – options including coffee enemas (to kick the liver into purging and throwing out unnecessary waste and chemicals) colonic irrigation (professionally done). Homeopathically there is this remedy, and for a fasting detox there is this. Then we need to incorporate a lot of raw food into the diet – by way of eating or juicing (preferred option for most because of convenience) and predominantly green food (alkaline). The two charts below differ slightly but are generally the same - simply exercise some common sense and restraint when choosing your food ingredients. The idea is to eat a variety of foods, choosing predominantly from the alkaline and low acid group, with the goal being 80% alkaline to 20% acidic. There are many extra medicines, tonics and treatments that can help. My favourite scientific website to support this is the miracle – Dr Young has decades of experience with countless cases – far superior results to any single practitioner I have ever read of or witnessed. The funniest and most interesting thing about his detractors, is the fact that every single one of them is someone who has been unable to follow the plan completely – and of course medical doctors who as usual seem to have an ego about it all – thankfully more and more practitioners of all persuasions are starting to learn about it all and follow the easy plan – the work has all been done for them. Lots of pure water needs to be drunk every day. Breakfast, as we know it, has to be eliminated – after a week or so it is very easy. Get a serious strong blender – it can be anything from a magic bullet to a vitamix. For more detailed and individualised guidance please take advantage of the e-assessment on this site.

  • Stop the Destruction of the World

    This organisation was established by a team of intellectuals in 1991 - to set about ending the relentless destruction of the planet, economy and health. Their fight is backed by sound advice and effective solutions. We each need to take a look to see what we are doing wrong, what we can do, and how we can help others understand. Or we can just continue to turn a blind eye. Stop the Destruction of the World From their site - The STOP the Destruction of the World Project is sponsored by the Keppe and Pacheco Association, a Non-Profit Organization founded in Paris in 1992 by psychoanalyst and writer Claudia Bernhardt de Souza Pacheco. The Association is made up of an international group of individuals and institutions dedicated to preserving humanity and nature. Project STOP’s guiding principles: - Apolitical - Ecumenical - Inter-racial - International - We accept no public or private institutional funding of any kind STOP’s scientific and philosophical orientation comes from psychoanalyst, philosopher and social scientist Norberto Keppe, the creator of Integral Psychoanalysis or Analytical Trilogy and author of more than 30 books on psycho-socio pathology. The truth is frightening, but not as frightening as knowing we have the power and ability to change this world for the better. This clip tells more - We are losing this Paradise You're either part of the problem or part of the solution. WALK LIGHTLY! That means in all you do - food, habits, lifestyle and beliefs. Changing these things alone, YOU can change how industry functions, how politicians function and how we as a race improve/destroy this planet. If you woke up today feeling insignificant and like you were losing the fight, you need to remember, in all we do, we MUST walk lightly. That includes within and around our home. Please consider this. #stopthedestruction #destructionofourhealth #destructionoftheplanet #destructionoftheworld

  • Government, Media & Pharmaceutical Giants in the land of Oz

    WHISTLEBLOWING - a threat to life itself; has it really been worth it? When a former health professional sees the light, we spend the rest of our lives wishing we didn't, that it would all just go away, that it was just a mistake and just maybe we got it wrong. We may even spend time trying to prove that we have it wrong; that the medical system is after all, the noble, honest industry we once thought it was. Somewhere along the line the knives and scalpels come out against us and some go quiet for their own safety. Others start to investigate just why this response has happened - and then it really comes tumbling down. Any doubt we had, any hope we fostered that we were wrong in walking away, is vapourised as we watch our peers destroyed in the media, attacked by former peers who were once friends and colleagues, or even total strangers who have nothing against us other than we do not agree with what they think they know. And somewhere along the line, the media jump in boots and all. This usually entangles the government in some way - whether it's to cover up the past and safeguard their own kickbacks, or protect them from being exposed. Any way it falls, the one brave enough to speak out or walk away is seen as the one at fault, even though their aim is to save lives and protect the innocent. Even if a mountain of evidence exists to show this corruption that is tantamount to mass murder - big enough to make September 11, the wars in the Middle East and the illicit drug trade look little more than naughty boys acting up at school. Whitewashing and clever spin are ongoing, well paid and very real roles - capable with a few words - and lots of money, to make the trouble disappear overnight. And what has dirtied up medicine for decades, is now drawing in complimentary/alternative healthcare. Back stabbing and cutting adrift of anyone who makes them feel uncomfortable - and newer graduates especially, already affected by medical influence are just as capable of attacking as their medical counterparts. It kind of makes it feel hardly worth it when someone attacks your credibility, even telling you to step aside, that your ideas are obsolete - then you remember they got their knowledge from coursework you wrote - and they think they know it all. For many years, experts who are dealing with the fallout of pharmaceutical deaths and injury - including vaccination injury and death - have been calling for a compensation scheme to be established. The government - led by the TGA and AMA - refuses to allow this to happen, even if, like the Americans, Australian leaders decide to make it only if no one is held liable. All this, despite thousands of reports every single year in Australia alone. All dismissed as anecdotal. Tell me, when did human response to medical treatment no longer count? When did pharma funded research in a laboratory or simulated program count more than what is really happening in the real world? Cancer is not the leading cause of death in the first world today, despite their best efforts. Rather than admit error, more and more diseases are invented annually - we are now up to around 10,000. Yet all disease can be traced back to just a few causes - environmental, dietary, mechanical (injury) and medical poisoning - and yes, each of these can in turn include hereditary or genetic as DNA ensues generation after generation. Let's consider this - iatrogenesis - or injury/death caused by medical error or side effects accounts for : 1. adverse reactions to incorrectly prescribed drugs 2. adverse reactions to correctly prescribed drugs 3. errors (wrong site, wrong procedure, wrong patient) during surgery 4. medical error 5. hospital-acquired infections 6. bedsores 7. malnutrition among hospitalized patients 8. unnecessary medical procedures 9. failure to properly diagnose 10. misdiagnosis 11. failure to correctly treat Various and numerous media articles confirm that thousands of iatrogenic deaths occur in Australia per year. More than any other 'disease'. Australia’s investigative journalist John Archer used public domain medical literature to guestimate that Australia had 50,000 iatrogenic deaths and 750,000 permanent injuries per year. Yet our government's official report is just over 250 deaths annually. That is supreme corruption and disregard for the very lives they claim to care about. (Source - ABC - horse's mouth itself.) Our government knows about this and yet the masses rush and queue for medical and pharmaceutical 'help' 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year. Hansard has at least part of it on record and demands for investigations have been made for years. All on deaf ears. Murdoch-owned media tells another story. Vacuous 'informers' keep the lies going - no doubt for a good payoff. How else does a blogger afford a $12million dollar Mc-mansion? Aside from her money saving outsourcing and underpaying the poor in India, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to find where she gets her kickbacks - a veiled attempt to con her readers into thinking she actually cares about life - hit issues like depression (medications of course) and (drum roll....) 'miracle' drugs for female health care with horrific side effects that read like Freddie Kruger's next film - and without an ounce of research into the concerns it is linked to breast cancer. I guess that is a good impetus for her going on to promote pink dollar, cancer funding awareness and all the social rot that goes along with it. She is the media darling of the pro vax brigade. Mothers who have zero background in medical research actually believe this woman and don't care that her lies are responsible for the very things she claims to be concerned about. Ho hum. At least one Perth university is teaching pre med students of the 'dangers' of natural medicine. No surprise there, considering the PAN debacle of the earlier part of this century. Along with our government Big Brother, the TGA and AMA buddy system, the same thing that is happening around the world - with the EU and FDA/CDC puppet masters - ad hoc destruction of alternative health in all its forms. From blanket statements like 'it doesn't work' to deliberately making supplements toxic, it's a very real effort to prevent the public from having a real chance at health. I had a good chuckle this week when a TV reporter announced that 'we don't know much about herbal benefits for health' - well, yes we do. WE know. The experts. Those who have studied and practiced for years. But scientific proof does not come about until big pharma have found a way to synthesize or extract what they think will work. Then all the fanfare of the new discovery - followed by obsession, newspaper reports, and subsequent failure. And who do you think is blamed? Not the mongrelisation of the original perfect substance. There are actually games in play - with massive kickbacks - to disprove natural medicines and have them banned. Adverse events are not all reported, yet ONE single pharmaceutical product that happened to have a herb content, brought down the entire natural health system because a girl died and they - as usual and as recently happened - jumped at a chance to use the bereaved parents to do their filthy bidding in the PAN 'crisis'. No one cared about whether she had recently had a vaccination to travel. No one cared that the medical system boasts of never acting on anecdotal evidence. Too many people are waking up - so hey, let's change the marker posts for what constitutes an adverse event. Instead, how about we muddy the waters and have 'near' adverse events. This is formulated by pharma, spruiked by pharma representatives and medical experts alike, advertised heavily within the media and government approved. Do your own research. Ask any doctor, nurse or pharmacist what an adverse event is. Then ask them what a side effect is. I guarantee no two answers will be the same. Yet entire careers and an entire industry is built on this. Entire fortunes made on it. Fairfax Media recently revealed research by the parliamentary library which found the top five pharmaceutical suppliers to the PBS, which include Pfizer, Novartis and AstraZeneca, received $2.8 billion in public money last year. Their total Australian sales were $4.8 billion but they paid just $53 million in tax between them or roughly 1¢ in tax for every dollar earned in Australia. This is the PBS scheme - one that drains tax payer dollars every day. In 2012, GlaxoSmithKline was forced to pay US tax authorities $US3.4 billion to settle a transfer pricing dispute. Johnson & Johnson, which paid just $20.7 million in tax in Australia in 2013 (from) sales of around $1.5 billion. Glaxo Smith Kline (GSK) has been fined $3 billion in the largest healthcare fraud case in history" but that company is not alone. Pfizer, was forced to pay out more than $2 billion in criminal and civil penalties for a vast catalogue of wrongdoing, including providing kickbacks to doctors. Australian doctors have written more than a million prescriptions for the heavily marketed diabetes drug Avandia – a drug belatedly found to increase the risk of heart attacks. Over 30,000 pharmaceutical promoting events are held in Australia alone every year - in hotels, hospitals, resorts and restaurants. But our greedy, grubby government is either powerless or unwilling to stop it. If powerless, why? Is the pharmaceutical industry really more powerful than the government? And if unwilling - again, why? When do financial incentives get tired? I've known doctors who travel regularly in 1st class/5 star comfort, funded by pharma kickbacks, receive new luxury cars, computers and cold, hard cash on a regular basis. I once had a rather public stoush with a Perth's northern suburbs doctor over his insistence he did not receive bribes or kickbacks. Just a matter of years later, his name appeared on a list of doctors investigated for this very thing. And all the while, those who are in it for good intentions are vilified. This last month, 3 doctors in Australia have been deregistered - for nothing more than advising patients of the dangers of vaccines. I have lost count of the number of nurses who have been investigated for the same reason. And during this same time frame, pharma advertising has skyrocketed in the media. I turned the radio on the other day - out of 6 adverts in one break, 3 were for pharma products or surgery. I no longer watch regular mainstream TV but while flicking over channels to see what was on, on 3 news stories were about the latest vaccine scare, a new medical discovery and cancer research fundraising. (People still confuse the notion of cancer research with actual funding of cancer sufferers). Then as I continued changing channels, an ad came up for a weak analgesic combo that now is deemed magically capable of being as strong as an opioid (it's not) because of the ridiculous new scheme to put strong analgesia on the PBS (ta da - more kickbacks). The following ad was for hayfever medication, followed by health insurance and funeral insurance ads. How much louder do they scream? Source - ABC.

  • No Drugs in the Garden of Eden

    One of the most common things a natural healer will hear is "What does your profession deal with?" That is like asking a doctor what they deal with. We are trained to deal with HEALTH - that encompasses ALL health issues. And like doctors, we refer for issues that are out of our capabilities or legalities. Not because we don't deal with any particular issue, but legally we must - just like a doctor will send you for an xray or blood test or procedure. Does that mean they don't know their work? Most people don't get this - because the media, along with our dismissive medical counterparts, is very cleverly orchestrated to confuse the public. In my own circle, I know entire families - generations even - who do not use or need modern medicine. No, they are not in some cult or making themselves suffer, they just choose to find alternatives - usually safer and often more effective than what we have come to expect from orthodoxy. That's not to say we don't need medicine. We do. Surgery, difficult births, and various emergency procedures are what makes medicine fantastic. But these things, rather than being an option, are by default the first choice. Why would you force your child to have surgery when homoeopathic drops can do the job? Why would you 'put up' with your worsening health issue as part of age expectancy, when there is no need? Why, when a patient of mine is now free of some so-called chronic or terminal disease for which specialists said there was no hope, would they go to a doctor for antibiotics for a common cold? So I can help with terminal disease but not a cold or flu? Why would an elderly man, free of any of the usual age-related issues, go for a check up and allow himself to be talked into a broad range of drugs that come close to killing him? At the very least, the doctor was able to say that his patient NOW suffers from dizziness, joint pain, high blood pressure, internal bleeding and poor vision. In reality, the first patient has more than enough to choose from - the same stuff that not only kept the human race alive for the whole of history but cured most ailments. And the elderly gent - well, once we managed to get him off these drugs and back onto his usual supplements, he was fighting fit in no time. Experts and advertising tell us that prior to modern medicine there was no cure. I guess that's why around half of the world's known drugs are merely synthesized herbs and minerals. Did they magically spring up when modern medicine was in its infancy? It's why vaccines were based on homoeopathic principles. There was no surgery in the Garden of Eden. No drugs, no vaccines, no chemo. But there were herbs, plants, oils, minerals and healthy food. There was energy, there was sunlight and fresh water, Edenic health. It may come as a shock but there are no NEW diseases. Same old, same old. Yet symptom combinations are being mutated every day, thanks to the G-force warp of drugs that are now breaking our genetic codes. Especially mRNA injectables. That's why every single year without fail, another herb, another natural therapy treatment is banned completely - along with the usual fanfare of perceived dangers - until it is patented or synthesized by the 'good' scientists and then re-released - with a price hike, sold in pharmacies, restricted from use by natural healers and touted as the latest discovery. All the while, the original, effective therapy was quite fine as it was - only now, experts spend big just to warn of the dangers. Cannabis is only a tiny portion of what is available - and what has been stolen and made civilised after pharmaceutical companies took over. And the masses not only fall for it, but forget one very important thing. While there was disease prior to modern medicine, there is exponentially more new disease combinations now - including those that modern medicine has no answers for. But don't let that stop them. Evidence-based medicine, random double blind trials and the placebo phenomenon all manage to confuse the issue a little more - with experts now able to excuse proof of the efficacy of a natural medicine as nothing more than anecdotal. Well excuse me, but I'd rather trust an anecdote (ie having seen complete cures with my own eyes) any day over something that has even a remote possibility of causing cancer, liver disease, brain bleeds, kidney failure or blindness - incidentally, all side effects of some of our more common infant and OTC medicines. Raising 4 children and helping many parents do the same without the need for drugs or medical intervention (including some scary and health threatening situations) is now excused as anecdotal rather than an example. Yet a drug can kill thousands a year & still be prescribed and lauded. Being ridiculed because I managed to cure a loved one's supposed terminal illness, as nothing more than an anecdote reeks of the stench that has resulted from industry cover ups. Especially when prior to my stepping in (once again, illegally) a person was not even given the night to survive. Further than that, once he was cured of the illness, the system dictated that he had to undergo the same treatment that was previously killing him - even though pathologically, no disease existed any more. And yes, this time it did kill him - as it continues to kill many thousands every single year. But I should not be surprised - this has happened to my patients too many times than I care to remember. I'm feeling pretty Davidish these days, against the Goliath that not only wont go down with the many stones hurled at it (truth and proof) but like the Terminator, just keeps climbing up and getting stronger. To have millions praying AGAINST natural healing 'evils' amounts to little more than curses over not only the health of the nations but the safe, effective treatments. While big pharma may have billions to bribe weak governments and doctors, they must be scared because never before in the history of modern medicine, has the attack on anything that is not orthodox been so savage and corrupt. Why else would so many doctors and nurses - and paramedical professionals be turning to alternatives? That's right - not just to practice, (there are actually natural medicine electives for doctors now) but every natural healer I know has medical and scientific experts amongst our patient lists. Confidentiality of course keeps that dirty little secret safe. It wouldn't be so bad, but I've had way too many medical 'experts' pick my brain and then give MY recommendations to their patients rather than send them to me or credit natural therapies for the resulting cure... The truth is, in every single area of health care, there is room for alternatives. Instead of shocking, stodgy, industry-guided 'nutrition' - imagine natural nutrition being used in a hospital situation. Instead of a questionable drug or procedure, imagine if a safer option was tried first. Now there's a novel idea. Imagine birthing suites not just advocating home birth scenarios, but all the vast range of complimentary care that used to be provided - well, before midwives were burned as witches by the jealous big boy's club of modern medsin... Imagine a child being given herbal or homoeopathic medicine for a fever or reaction - one that doesn't carry life threatening side effects, if it works at all? Ever wonder why nurses still do tepid baths for fevers? Because alone, analgesia and antipyretics don't necessarily do the job. But I've lost count of the number of dangerous fevers not responding to medications that were soothed and healed just by a stat dose of Belladonna 30c. Go figure. What about (and we used to joke about this one at college during my post grad studies) your doctor going to his cupboard, not for a (free) drug sample that the good company rep has just dumped on him, but a handful of acupuncture needles. In minutes, carefully and well chosen points that have the ability to remove that pain, or that health issue. On that note, acupuncture is NOT just for pain - that belief has come about courtesy of the 90s emergence of the medical weekend warrior crusade; as we were gaining recognition, GPs were paid to do a 2 day course, learn a dozen points (there are hundreds & new ones being discovered all the time) & go back to their clinics to do two things - pain relief & detox. My acupuncture manual is thicker than any medical reference I have ever read or seen - with tiny print. It contains suggestions for every single known health issue in medicine - written by a combination of medical & alternative experts & used in hospitals around the world. Ask yourself, why a doctor in Germany is encouraged to learn Homoeopathy. Or why in China, it takes 10 years to become a GP - where acupuncture and TCM are part of medicine. Two nations that have not been manipulated by western pharma power (until recently, anyway). But the doubts were planted long ago - that is why so few would trust either modality despite incredible records. If doctors from either of those countries tried to practice in the west, why are they not allowed to? I've worked alongside some of these people and it is mind boggling to see them in action - yet our regulations state they are not up to par with our equivalent... Just imagine, a child with recurrent otitis media, going to surgery for grommets - being headed off at the pass and given (again) Belladonna 30c along with say Sulphur 30c and a diet free of mucous-irritating dairy and wheat. My case file of this one issue is a huge pile. What about the lady with gastric ulcerations, who can neither keep food down or in her body long enough to do any benefit? Antacids, anti emetics, biopsies, probes, even resections have not made her life any more comfortable. How about a nutritional dietary adjustment? That alone can often be enough but how about something as simple but as effective as slippery elm, herbal teas, homoeopathic digestives, or a topical application of natural pain relief? If not enough, how about a dose twice a day of bicarb? No joke here folks - I have seen (in a very short time) bicarb do for many cancers and acidic health issues, what every drawn out effort of doctors over many years could not do. Just imagine that lady has that colostomy scheduled only as a LAST option... This has been done of course, but just like with alternative practitioner control, it is overseen by medical experts who have absolutely no idea - and as a result (and more than likely deliberately) - 'research' inevitably fails. Take the London Homoeopathic Hospital - capable of some of the most incredible miracles that no doctor could explain or understand, it became nothing more than a medical centre bent on disproving all the good work. I've been (un)fortunate enough at times, since leaving my earlier years as a nurse, to be invited by patient family members into a hospital situation. Sometimes, the life of the person was at stake, with the doctors stating there was nothing more they could do and it was only a matter of time. Other times, it was during labour where even the attending physician and midwives were interested and impressed with what alternatives could offer. But heaven help any natural healer who happens to help a patient for whom there are no medical answers. I have been verbally and close to physically abused (body slammed against the ward wall). I have been threatened with legal action. And in one case, alternative efforts not only roused a dear old lady from her coma and had her ambulating for the first time in 6 months, but she could eat again, talk again and was in fact scheduled to go home. At least until the good doctor returned. When I was his underling, as a nurse in the same hospital, things were fine. I thought he was a good doctor and maybe he thought I was a good nurse. I wouldn't know because when you work closely with doctors, it's a tough call to tell what they are thinking. You see them so briefly and it's not really prudent to talk to them (the god-doctor effect). But when the balance was somehow tipped and his halo began to slip, things got really ugly. Beginning with insults about the 'miracle worker' casting spells or some flippant remarks. It was pointed out to him - by me initially and then the charge nurse, that she had indeed been on two very contraindicated drugs that were responsible for her plight. Tip - don't correct a doctor. Ever. Don't suggest. Don't KNOW anything. After our altercation, I left the hospital for the long drive home. I left the patient outside in the sunlight, chatting with her family, while her daughters were inside packing her things for her imminent discharge the following day. I got a call early the next morning asking to please come in. Nothing else. I walked into the darkened room & everyone was crying. She was semi comatose, the drip was back up along with the two contraindicated meds which had triggered her original state. The doctor flashed past me & muttered "I told you that there was nothing that could be done. You had no right to get their hopes up." That lovely old lady spent the day in and out of consciousness, unable to recognise any of her family - who she now thought were trying to kill her. What a horrible final memory of a loved one. She passed away that night... And the doctor responsible was never held accountable. It was 'my' fault. Even though the family knew the truth, there was nothing they could do about it. Being indigenous, they told me there was no point. The range of alternatives is vast. And unlike the media would have it portrayed, the alternative is usually not weird. It's been a clever trick to lump valid health options in with downright strange - plant a seed of doubt. Especially when the media make gods of doctors and nutcases of natural healers. At any rate, for the last 20 years I have taught my patients to take charge of their health. That includes medicine - if everything else fails. A home medicine chest is vital, not wasteful or silly. Arm yourself with books and leaflets that explain the basics. It's no coincidence that millions of families around the world have little need for medicine - they are not miraculously free of illness. Many started out close to death. There is ALWAYS a second opinion. Always. If you had freedom to access it, everyone would know. Sometimes surgery is needed, sometimes even a drug may be - as in analgesia or a one-off drug to correct an emergency. Sometimes a procedure provides relief where nothing else can. But everyone has the right to know very real options. Don't you think? There is an answer to everything - sometimes the best option is a totally different one; other times it's a combination of therapies. And it doesn't have to cost the earth. Our health system is burdened by being over-subsidised. It's failing. While alternatives are not usually funded, they just may be your best option. Whatever you do, just get back to Eden. #drugs #dafedrugs #sideeffects

  • Who Owns Natural Health?

    Most will not realise, let alone believe that natural health is owned and controlled by Big Pharma. "How?" I hear you say. To answer this, we need to go back to the start. In the beginning, ALL medicine was natural. There was no alternative medicine. Without getting too technical, herbal, traditional, native, bush, acupuncture, ayurvedic, even energetic and surgery - all had their beginnings from the earliest recorded times. Whether you subscribe to paleo theories or Creationism (or Edenic), medicine in the beginning was natural and according to both geography and natural resources. Western medicine, which likes to claim their roots in Hippocrates (c. 460 – c. 370 BCE), did not arrive until centuries later. In fact, much of what we now know in health care began in places never given credit - India, China, Italy, Greece, the Arab Empire, Israel and Africa. While western formal medical schools were not established until the 16th century, there were medical schools in many nations, with archeological finds proving the earliest surgeries were in place thousands of years ago. All based around natural medicine and always only performed in emergency situations. During the Renaissance period, the European and English began to translate and dominate the works written in Arabic and Greek, centuries previously. Much later the same began to emerge with Indian and Chinese works. As these 'developments' happened, the expert roles also began to change. Originally tribal and predominantly female, the Catholic church began to channel knowledge via nuns and elite women in general. However, it soon became a religious issue as Protestant leaders removed women from these roles - paving the way for wealthy men to control the future of medicine; not only lining their pockets but inextricably linked to government and finance/industry. Modern medicine as it grew, was for the elite and wealthy - while natural health knowledge was passed down through generations, especially amongst the rural and poor. This was frowned upon by the church and rather than allow valuable knowledge to be taught informally, all things natural were declared to be witchcraft (16th/17th centuries). What better way to destroy valuable knowledge than by 'proving' theories which were impossible to pass - especially when they ended in death either way. By the 19th century, modern medicine was a male-dominated, elitist and very political industry. Pharmacy had moved from depending upon man-power to collect resources, to synthesising new medicines in laboratories. While this was a direct alternative to traditional medicine, careful propaganda and manipulation of wording had begun. Words such as traditional and alternative had reversed roles; the former now meaning orthodox medicine, while the latter meant anything which no longer fell under the umbrella of science - and usually a euphemism for others such as charlatanism, snake oil, quackery, fraud, etc. Eventually even the word preventive/preventative was mongrelised to mean a wishy-washy realm of modern medicine which of course was centred around pharmacy. Between the 1830s and the 1860s, laboratory research gave rise to the germ theory; if it were not for political power and money, the more favourable terrain theory would still govern medicine today. By the late 1800s, the vaccine industry had begun - fraught with horrors and a mounting pile of fatalities, this industry, along with synthetic medications accompanied by horrific side effects gave rise to the new arena of medical spin and propaganda. Loss of manpower during the great wars meant more than ever, synthetic medications were easier and cheaper to formulate and manufacture. Pharmacists were among the new elite, receiving immunity from the war effort other than to spearhead a new era of medicines and the formation of super-pharmaceutical companies which still exist today, in order to keep the burgeoning new industry steaming forward. Along with the new industry came as much effort to destroy historic medicines. Even the more safe and efficacious were painted as dangerous and ineffective. Many were outlawed, while many more continued to be synthesised into medications.In the 21st century, while no one can argue that there are many benefits in modern medicine, the locomotive has such steam that it no longer seems to matter what works, what doesn't; what is safe or what is life-endangering - so long as it makes money. And here we are - in the new century, with more disease than ever before, more sickness than ever before, more obesity than ever before - worst of all, more drug dependency than ever before in history. The effort to put the final nails into the perceived coffin of natural medicine has never been so pronounced. People who enter medicine or even pharmacy for the right reasons seem to not notice or nor care that their future is now controlled by big pharma. Gone are the days of the kindly country physician who takes care of everything; today, a 5-minute consultation is little more than a push for the latest product being flogged by the pharma rep. Even a pharmacist to tries to gently explain to the customer that the prescription scramble that they are now on is not safe and could do with a reassessment is met with anger and egotistical ire from the doctor. Yet they seem to forget the pharmacist knows the drugs they are dispensing. The doctor knows the body - or should. So how does big pharma now own or control natural medicine? Some of these facts may alarm you. At the very least they SHOULD. Each of the following is now seen as preventive medicine and cleverly lumped in with alternatives. blood pressure taking to determine whether you need anti-hypertensives to somehow prevent health issues BSL readings to determine the amount of insulin required even in basic blood sugar issues Blood tests and various analyses to determine which medications are required to keep on top of your health Administration of such medications as aspirin to prevent one symptom set Medically-prescribed synthetic supplementation which also resulted in myriad side effects Being tied in with various industries for mutual benefit - for example, encouraging people to drink milk for health so they can clean up thanks to the effects Poor dietary advice from untrained professionals - again, linking in with various industries; the end result of which is mutually beneficial Vaccination to prevent disease The most popular IBS natural product (Iberogast), being packaged and promoted as a natural health product is in fact made by pharmaceutical company Bayer - also known as the company that recently purchased Monsanto (RoundUp) - the company that has surreptitiously been buying up the world's seeds while killing off all plants that are not RoundUp Ready. Just one of the seemingly endless list of glyphosate side effects is the destruction of the digestive system as it is now found in many foods. Analysis of many pharmaceutically-owned natural health products proves that they are not only often synthetic but contain toxic products. As natural health/Integrative/holistic whistleblowers expose the corruption within the pharmaceutical industry their careers are destroyed. Rather than put an end to pharmaceutical corruption, dozens have died mysteriously in more recent years. As more and more medical professionals enter the natural health realm, rather than join forces with established natural health professionals, they are forming new Integrative bodies which prohibit natural health professionals from joining in a professional capacity. Meanwhile, these same Integrative health professionals are in turn targeted by medical and legal bodies in order to shut them down. Online amateur investigators (colloquially termed trolls) are paid to expose and discredit anyone perceived to be threatening big pharma. Doctors and allied health professionals are now able to do weekend warrior short courses which allow them to practice natural therapies. As they can claim on health funds and medicare as medical natural health professionals they continue to put the real experts out of practice simply due to affordability. As universities take over natural therapy courses, knowledge is watered down while medical experts control both the governing bodies and the courses themselves, where students are taught from day one that natural health will only ever be the poor cousin to pharma based medicine. Medical schools are funded by big pharma so it is no longer about evidence or research - it is more about who is paying. From day one students are brainwashed. By the time they graduate they are already experts in pharmaceutical products and usually have their own 'favourites'. An expose failed to shake up the world or bring about any changes. As mainstream media is pharma-owned, it is rare for the truth in natural health care to reach the masses. The plan has always been to destroy the natural health industry. And it is government-sanctioned. Since the PAN 'crisis' where big pharma set up a well-orchestrated hostile takeover which no one could foresee or even fight, big pharma has taken over or bought out most natural health manufacturing companies. While this takeover took place in Australia, it was also happening simultaneously overseas. The EU is funded by big pharma. The CDC & WHO are headed by a committee made up of big pharma leaders. As natural health/Integrative/holistic whistleblowers expose the corruption within the pharmaceutical industry their careers are destroyed. Rather than put an end to pharmaceutical corruption, dozens have died mysteriously in more recent years.. #naturalhealth #integrativehealth #bigpharmatakeover

  • Auto Immune Mismanagement - and Hope

    This blog was set up to direct people, no matter where you are in the world, to finding answers for free to your health - but it all began with a personal case of fibromyalgia/neurological pain, Chronic Fatigue and Lyme, and wanting to help others avoid the pitfalls. I vowed when my daughter recovered I would share how we did it. She did get better and we do share - but every day I see the same thing: now that it is medicalised it is about diagnosis and chasing symptoms (ie perceived depression and myalgia) - NOTHING about healing or undoing the various causes. And people have given up by the time they find this blog. Health and treatments are so far from healthy today it is a wonder anyone survives, let alone really lives. Shock treatment and removal of vital organs? Sadly, this is the direction treatment has gone. My first cases of CFS were seen in my nursing days - the standard treatment back then was shock treatment, anti-depressants and hysterectomies for the ladies. CFS is NOT depression, nor is it a female issue. In 2006, which is relatively recent, when my daughter became unwell, we spent the better part of 3 years doing the rounds of around 20 different doctors/clinics/hospitals before we realised that yes, I would have to do it alone even if it was technically illegal. That old deja vu of 'this is what I have studied and rehearsed for my entire professional career' happened yet again as it has done so many times in my career. Medical treatment in this instance involved anti-depressants, addictive analgesics and threat of admission into the mental health system which we refused. My daughter wasn't depressed; she was just sick of being unwell. If, in frustration, she burst into tears, she was once again reminded that yes, she has depression. I wonder dear doctor, if you had burning, searing pain that drove you to despair, enlarged abdominal organs that left you unable to eat or even breathe properly, would you feel 'happy' enough to impress anyone ignorant enough to keep asking the same questions? If the neurological pain that made you feel as if your skull had acid poured over it, and a deficit of energy that left you dependent on others to be able to walk or even go to the toilet - through all this, to be told there is nothing wrong with you, that it is all in your mind, and you need addictive drugs to make you feel happy again and only then would all your problems go away - would you be 'happy' and bounce around just enough to impress yourself - or would you also cry? Or perhaps you would feel angry when well-meaning family and friends asked you each and every time you saw them, "Are you STILL sick? Don't you think it's time you got over it?" Fun was made of our high raw, organic, plant based diet, and we were told a number of times that as I do not vaccinate my children, this is surely what caused it (so now, NOT having poison injected into your system magically creates disease?) In our case, my children were spared the flu vaccine link (one of many vaccines linked to auto immune diseases and myalgia) however they had been exposed to a number of chemicals by default despite our organic lifestyle. Vaccine injury had also happened amongst myself and siblings and our children bore the brunt of DNA damage (cancer and auto immune disorders). One doctor actually Googled CFS/ME in front of us, as he had never treated it. That particular doctor sent her home in a wheelchair with the words, "Prepare for the worst. If she stops breathing again tonight, please bring her back. But she may not last the night. If she does, take her to your doctor as we do not have the ability to treat her." So we had a teen who may or may not last the night - but as they had not dealt with it, go home. It was a long night - especially as earlier that day, we had stood in the local welfare office trying to at least recoup some of the money we'd lost (I could no longer work as she needed constant care, but did not qualify for a carer's allowance and she had not been able to work for some time) - she collapsed on the floor and lay there crying and shaking. People - many who looked like actual drug addicts openly laughed at her while stepping over her in exaggeration - and a few less than decent comments were made to her about drugs. I stood there crying for her, and that was when I vowed to share any answers I found, once I found them! Apologies to those who still find it difficult, and who still have no support because the illness is not popular enough to garner sympathy, funding or attention. Hopefully the list below will help make it more clear. The effort to make one doctor's visit can have repercussions for days The truth is, if you had cancer or any visible widely promoted/funded/supported illness, you would have some form of support and understanding. How long does it take you to recover after each visit to a doctor or other practitioner? My daughter usually took an average of 3 completely bed-ridden days, during which time she didn't eat, couldn't have the light on, and shook with pain. I want to help you avoid this. One thing that may help is knowing how much it takes to even make and keep an appointment and the days of recovery following; you are able to avoid that stress, while ordering what you need to get better, from the comfort of your own home. Hopefully your support network can do the groceries and take care of other needs. It would be nice to have a dedicated service in each city but I guess that will only come with more awareness and honesty in treatment. Sadly for now I don't see things changing - I have lobbied our government and health systems as many peers have done in other nations and so far, there is no interest. Many of these networks include sufferers or at least former sufferers without outside support. The great thing to know is that I have had many patients I have never met, across the world, who don't even have a good support network or have limitless cash - who have been able to return to health, after previously using their life savings and many years in the system without any success. Almost every day I am contacted by someone else thanking me for the protocol. So what is CFS, really? As a syndrome is a mix of symptoms that do not fit disease paradigms, so too with CFS - it is a set of seemingly unrelated symptoms - meaning medicine has not yet come up with a specific disease cause - or related patents. In truth, there is no one cause. Known triggers/causes, all of which I have witnessed and treated - insect bites/stings (Ross River, Lyme, etc) vaccinosis or other medication side effects surgery and titanium type allergies (which, interestingly, is not recognised in medicine and like many natural forms of assessment and treatment, one must go outside of medicine to find answers, at their own expense) hormonal damage (adrenals, thyroid, pituitary, ovarian, gonads, etc) allergies triggered by parental toxicity or environmental damage - including heavy metal parasitic infestations or mould toxicity/allergy major deficiencies and injuries - it can be a mix of two or more Epstein Barr virus or the flu If you do not yet have a diagnosis, please stop and take stock. This latent need to get a diagnosis and validation does nothing but tell you what you already knew - it wont offer a magic cure. And it should not be necessary for you to go through the long, drawn out process (often unsuccessful) of trying to get one within the medical system. The stages of recognising and treating most auto immune illness Stage one - understanding invisible disease. It is no one issue, no magic pill is going to 'fix' it. It is a toxic attack that has taken some time and/or trauma to develop, affecting your nervous system and vital organs - and in turn, every aspect of your health. Usually misdiagnosed for years, much time has passed, allowing symptoms to develop unnecessarily.Have you been exposed to pharmaceutical or environmental/industrial toxins/chemicals? Perhaps your decline began after a vaccine, medication or treatment? Stage two - starting on the correct detox (including heavy metal), diet and lifestyle is as vital as is the correct supplementation. There are many, many simple tips, such as the common herb ginger to help with abdominal inflammation and pain, as well as hormone imbalance. You need your support network to also identify with your illness, as most people fail to understand completely unless they know how it feels, or what it is. Do you notice that after certain foods or exposures, you feel worse? Could you be also struggling with pyroluria? This could explain heavy metal toxicity, adrenal issues, and so much nore, Stage three - There are so many diets out there, including for invisible disease, that it makes your head spin. And it often makes you sick eventually, if not immediately. Invisible disease is about inflammation. Think about it - acid causes swelling and inflammation and is linked to ALL pain and illness. So what causes illness? Primarily what we put into our bodies but also what we put onto our bodies, our thought processes and stress. So how do you take your body from an acidic mess full of inflammation and pain, to a pH neutral, calm, pain free HEALTHY, living individual? There is no alkaline pill, no magic vaccine that is going to change things if you make no other changes. If you live acidic, you live with inflammation. Most newcomers argue with this, yet eventually they get it. So how do you trust what is the correct diet, and how do you learn how to pull it all into one cohesive program? Do you have inflammation from a low pH? Have you even TESTED your pH? Stage four - the correct medicines - while I agree with analgesia if it means relief and sleep, I do not see it as an effective treatment ideal - many are addictive and come with a host of side effects, even death. But in the short term or occasionally, yes, please take them. After trialing thousands of dollars' worth of what I would term excellent supplements (including practitioner only and some of the most expensive and well researched options) I began reading up on certain biochemical research. Pharmaceuticals do not deal with the foundations or molecular health or dis-ease symptoms. Do you know over 90% of people have some form of deficiency that there is no medical test for? Stage five - this wraps up all the adjuvant tips and ideas that have many benefits and even increase the effectiveness of the steps above. Gluten sensitivity or RoundUp toxicity Mould toxicity and sensitivity is possibly a factor in ALL cases of auto immune dis-ease Hormone imbalance is a major factor in invisible disease - including lupus, ALS, MS, MD and much more. And it is one of the most mismanaged health sectors. What about the ongoing arguments that natural therapies don't work? This has been an ongoing very clever spin exercise, with little truth, other than fear and money - why do so many accept a death sentence without even trying? What about pain relief? Why are so many auto immune disease sufferers now registered drug addicts? What about scams? How do you know the protocol is safe or effective? Feel free to print off this information and share with anyone you know who may need it. The general rule of thumb is for every year you have been sick, it will take a month to reverse but this can be dependent on many varying factors. Be patient and just know you are doing the right thing - some of our best suggestions: 1. Fibromyalgia/fatigue remedy 2. Adrenal/thyroid remedy 3. 7 medicinal fungi remedy 4. Superfood, probiotics, herbal, adaptogenic, tonic 6. Anti parasite 7. Mould detox 8. Noni superfood tonic 9. Homeo-biotic 10. Pyrrole relief #lymetreatment #CFStreatment #chronicfatigue #autoimmune

  • The Role of Dairy in Osteoporosis

    Is milk vital for your bones? Thanks to unbiased research by scientists not depending on kickbacks, many 'foods' (which were little more than circumstantial, based upon geography and other societal pressures), such as processed sugar, meat and other industry-based ‘foods’ including GMO corn and Round-up laced wheat (flour) products, dairy is no longer considered a vital food. But don’t let that good ol’ home-spun cookies-and-cream advertising slow down medical dietary mythology an inch… With the current dairy wars and more people than ever turning to a plant based diet, government-bolstered industries are going nuts in their advertising – actually shaming the public into drinking milk, as if we are somehow less human if we have a heart and walk a little lighter or sensibly. Why does no one question the fact that many vitally health indigenous nations, once weaned fro their mothers' own teats, did not partake of the secretions of another species. Australian aboriginals, many Asian & African as well as South American nations, prior to westernisation, simply did not consume dairy. It's a massive industry and so many lies have ben told to dupe the public into thinking we depend on it for health. Never before in history has a civilisation consumed so much dairy – yet osteoporosis – like tooth decay – is at epidemic proportions – now at over 50% of the adult population; even within younger age groups. Your doctor will never tell you that it’s actually your fault that your bone density is so bad. Instead, he/she will prescribe supplements for which they know nothing, drugs with side effects that can lead to cancer or brain cell death, or tell you to do weight bearing exercise. This advice is seriously flawed – despite the fact they will tell you that each of these things is scientifically proven. Isolating a nutrient and taking it in high doses is not only dangerous but leads to severe imbalances – and down the track, they lead to even worse… The public needs to know that all of these actors talking about their successes with ‘caltrate’ or ‘calcium/vitamin D’ supplements are just that – actors. It’s a paid gig – and for actors/singers/sportspeople who work in an industry with close to 90% unemployment, it’s just that – they don’t give a toss about what happens to you once you fall for the blurb. Sad but true. You need to know that calcium is one of the most readily available nutrients on the planet – it’s in just about every whole food. It’s your fault if you choose to eat junk over proper food. Taking a supplement that is not made from whole food will not change the situation. I was told by a very proud person the other day that they do not eat vegetables – and it was said with the sort of pride one would expect of a 6 year old who has mastered his ABCs or someone who recently graduated from uni. The truth needs to be shouted from the rooftop. If you ate a human being – or drank the milk of a nursing (human) mother, would you expect to get all the nutrients you need? Sounds pretty stupid, right? Well, the meat – and dairy) of one animal is no better nutritionally than any other. It’s just the way each individual species is marketed by its relevant industry. Correct amounts of perfect calcium – along with all the other nutrients are already available – in fresh food. So, what is calcium found in? Leafy greens, seeds, nuts, tofu, and coloured vegetables just for a start. And what else is calcium necessary for? Well, hundreds of functions actually but in a nutshell, strong teeth and bones, nerve and muscle function, and blood clotting – but guess what? It’s not calcium alone that does all this – so if you take calcium alone, you may as well be one of the poor malnourished pica sufferers eating rocks. Your car, which is a far less intricate machine than your body, needs water, fuel and oil to function. Imagine if you just poured water into all the receptacles – how good would it run? And what happens if you take too much calcium (which occurs with calcium supplementation)? Poor bone development and maintenance, tetany, excessive nerve activity, poor circulation with tingling in hands and feet. But that is just the beginning. BTW, dairy is an atrocious form of calcium. It’s actually detrimental to your health. Flawed studies by – yes – industry-paid ‘experts’ are used repeatedly to ‘prove’ that our kids need – what was it? A cube of cheese, a tub of yoghurt, a bowl of cereal a day to get all the calcium they need. The calcium in dairy is not very assimilable by humans – which means it is locked away, only available to the species for which it was made – calves. You know, the millions of babies who die within days of birth so you can have your mucous-producing, inflammation-causing white poison. Enough of that – this is not an ethics paper. But I included it to show just how ridiculous the whole scenario actually is. The thing is, it is not just calcium and vitamin D that our bones need. And regardless of whether you took a whole bottle of vitamins a day, if your body is acidic, it wont make one spot of difference. Magnesium is by far, a more worrying deficiency because a lack of magnesium will result in soft bones, and calcium deposits IN your muscles and blood vessels. That’s right – plaque in your blood is caused initially by calcium deposits which become a magnet for fats, toxins and other waste. Vitamin D is synergistic to calcium – meaning it wont work properly without it – and it is free! So what do we do? Rather than go out into the sunlight, we choose to live like vampires and take a toxic synthetic version of D that our doctors (untrained in nutrition or supplementation) tell us to take. And what about too much calcium? If taken through artificial sources, soft tissue calcification – aka rheumatism, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, tumours – even stomach cancer as the body battles to assimilate and excrete the excessive levels. And when x-rays show deposits of calcium tablets throughout the bowel of an unsuspecting patient? Of course naturopathy gets a bad rap (even though it is nothing to do with it) and your diligent doctor will find another drug that will aid in the breakdown of calcium. Back to square one – your bone levels of calcium will not increase. In fact, those who take these supplements have been proven to still suffer bone softening – osteoporosis – but now you will have a false sense of security because it is now ‘monitored’… The synthetic version of vitamin D is not true D – in fact, skin cancer is on the increase because of the lack of vitamin D – along with an increase in asthma (linked to low D). No, there is no magic pill – it is all down to doing what we are supposed to – eating well. What can you do? Eat right. Work to get your body pH neutral – I can’t stress that enough. Get more sunlight – even if you sit under shade outside – but for goodness sake, don’t cover up with sunblock, hats, long sleeves and whatever else ‘protects’ you from good health. Most don't even know that over 90% of your beneficial rays responsible for manufacturing vitamin D are absorbed through your pupils! Or that you need a mere 15 minutes a day of the sun's rays. That does not happen if you wear sunglasses as soon as you step out of doors. Your doctor and pharmacist will tell you that there are no studies in natural medicines and that is why it is not supported or promoted – in fact it is dangerous to follow such advice. There are actually more studies into alternatives – it is just that the results are not appreciated by orthodoxy – and of course when things are ‘proven’ it is the scientists who take the credit, not those who have already proven it. Here is an article based on one such study – proving diet and alkalinity is the only way to prevent bone weakening. Yes, other studies show there are things you can do to improve bone density – like using wild yam cream every single day to draw calcium and other harder minerals back from the soft tissues into the bones – and Himalayan salt, which balances electrolytes, micronutrients and pulls high sodium levels out of your bones, replacing them with harder minerals. But if you are serious about your health and that of your family, you need to do what is necessary – not leave it to your doctor to try and attack after the fact – and the fact is that all elderly people now taking caltrate or any other high calcium supplement STILL HAVE OSTEOPOROSIS and will have it until they die. This is NEVER to say supplementation is not necessary. But it IS to say that you must get supplementation advice from someone actually qualified and experienced in orthomolecular medicine and health. That does not include university-trained ‘nutritionists’ who are trained by meat/dairy/wheat/sugar/pharmaceutical industries. ALL of your food should be seen as supplementation – anything not nutrient-dense should be seen as alien to your body and used under duress – as in on rare occasion rather than the norm. Everything from your drinking habits to your snacks and meals should be highly nutritious. #osteoporosis #bonehealth

  • Food Combining Made Easy

    First things first. Ayurveda is one of the world's original medicine forms, dating back many thousands of years. It was the original and most concise form of food combining. Modern food combining is a relatively 'new' term (coined circa 1920s) by Dr Hay, then later on it was termed nutripathy by Dr Martin in the 1970s - today it is known more for the pH aspect via modern day luminaries such as Dr Robert Young and both Cayce and Jarvis. So no, it is not a fad. And you only have to try it for a short while for your body to be able to tell you that yes, it is the way our bodies prefer we eat. Please follow up with my other pH articles and more on your stomach's plea. Basically the food combining theory is founded upon the most optimal eating process for our digestion, assimilation and health - removing inflammation and in turn, disease. Interestingly, even though it is miles ahead of modern dietetics and standard diets, experts spend so much time slamming it you would think it was the diet responsible for obesity, heart disease and general poor health. Some people base their dietary choices on still including meat and dairy or the original Ayurvedic advice if you prefer easy to follow tried and tested methods. But for simplicity, meals are planned around combinations of either protein and neutral or starch and neutral. Digestion and assimilation are optimal, weight loss or gain is easier, acidity is reduced, inflammation is reduced - ie poor health is reduced. So how to make planning simple? I find the easiest way is to have a simple chart printed up on your fridge, which you can use for your shopping list also. While preparation methods, habits and recipes will have to be adjusted, once you 'get it' this way of eating is really easy. Note: packaged and processed foods are not included for a reason. And for the definitive list, I find the easier the better. If your preferred foods are not there, please ask if they are foods at all (ie processed) or if they are just compare them to the different plant foods and what is closest (ie different nuts or for example, various brassicas or similar plants).

  • Edenic Animal Care

    This is a B-I-G topic. I instinctively took a deep breath as I wrote the title of this article. For many reasons it seems. There is no way I can put all of it into one article. Big pharma control veterinary medicine as much as they control human medicine. The pet food industry is responsible for much suffering of animals..And if it's so bad in the first world, imagine how much harder it is for animals elsewhere. Imagine just how hard it is for those who really do walk the walk & live to heal animals as naturally as possible. It is do-able but it is not easy. In places where human life is so expendable - ignored by the rest of the world, what of the animals? What of even the very basics? Let me remind you that I am not a vet & I have the utmost respect for vets. I have many veterinary friends, many of whom practice natural methods of health care for their animals. Two of my children have worked as veterinary nurses & we have for many years care for animals naturally. The loudest arguments have come from Christians. I won't quote other texts but I know it's true. Isaiah 11:6 says it all for me. Prior to the fall, no animal ate another but afterwards bloodlust took over. I'm not here to tell you one way or another. But our dominion has gone awfully wrong. It is hell on earth for most animals today. We really have failed. Even those of us who profess to love animals. Yet everything that encompasses Edenic living for humans can be applied to animals - and is, every day - Herbal medicine Homeopathy Acupuncture Osteopathy Chiropractic Massage therapy Natural diet/Plant diet Hydrotherapy ... & so much more make up just what is available for today's animals who, for the most part, are mass-bred, overfed, poisoned & abused. Some are fortunate - but again it goes in the polar opposite direction; with many wealthy spending as much on one pampered pet as could be better spent caring for hundreds, if not thousands of abandoned, abused & neglected animals. Still today, most people see animals for a select purpose - Food Working Gambling Income Pleasure How sad then, that all of these equate to animal suffering. I personally do not believe you can claim to love animals and still eat them. Or love some species but use others. Today, billions of animals are bred & killed every year for food. Totally needless. Yes, many species are predators and some are prey - but humans who argue this are not out there catching their prey with their bare hands, and eating them raw, bones, hooves, hair and all. Besides, there is no need for this lifestyle other than bloodlust. The conditions of breeding and raising the animals (livestock) can be appalling - and usually are. Yet even our animal welfare groups approve it. The working animal can take many forms - from disability pets to showjumpers; from beasts of burden to circus performers. Just because the animals can do something, does not mean they should. I am sure you can do the jobs that your animals do - even carry other humans on your back. But do you? Most animals don't want to - but human domination means they have to. And then we get to gambling - such a divide in the scheme of things. The punters have addictions and carry an entire catalogue of their own issues so spare no thought for the conditions in which those creatures are bred, kept or, as is common, how short their lives are. More end up in abattoirs or shipped off to nations for meat consumption than are retired & rescued. Breeders are a special breed of their own. I remember having an argument with a friend's mum who was a breeder. She saw nothing wrong with forcefully impregnating 'her girls' every year or so and selling to the highest bidder. My comments along the lines of my distaste for people making an income from breeding, and suggesting they should be made to have licenses was met with contempt and derision. As in how dare I make their lives less comfortable - too bad about the dogs. My views have not changed decades later - especially as we have taken in our umpteenth rescue of all manner of animals. And pleasure - this one has a very broad meaning. It could be companionship which is beautiful or it could, depending upon the size of the brain of the individual, mean dog fighting, hunting, fishing or anything else that provides kicks for one species and not the other. Why is the divide so wide? And then there was the vet nurse who actually supported horse racing (as so many vets seem to do) because her rescue was the best horse she had owned. How does that even make sense? Few take their animals to the vet - unless it is an emergency or needing euthanasia. Even less would consider using natural health care for their animals. How were animals cared for prior to the medicalisation of the world? Natural, organic diets, herbs, homeopathy, pure water, open air (something most of today's mass produced animals do not get to experience). Animals today suffer from human diseases. When I was first told this I was confused. As in how? Well, a combination of diet and medication. They are being poisoned at the same rate we are. Vaccines which are useless but laden with appallingly toxic ingredients - systemic parasitic treatments which are too toxic for human hands to handle - diets using ingredients animals should not consume. Many vegetarian livestock are fed meat meal to fatten them up - or just to get rid of waste product.Yes, this is a vast topic. But one that should be embraced. Don't go gung-ho. Some ingredients and foods should not be fed to certain species. But with adequate research, why can't you prepare your pet's food? Even after all these years, it is a rabbit hole that seems to get bigger as I go along. I've been blessed to be called to help with some of the greatest miracles in healing that I have witnessed - with animals - A poisoned horse (consumption of the inner flesh of the balga plant which is toxic to horses) - the first horse had died by the time I arrived. The vet did not know what to do so agreed to let me try. I gave a few doses of a homeopathic remedy and left it with the human, not knowing what the outcome would be. By the next morning the horse was up on its hooves again and back to normal, running around within days. A baited dog - too far from a vet and stuck without transport. I gave a homeopathic detox 15 minutely until transport arrived to take the dog half an hour's drive to the nearest vet. He was in the early stages of seizing with dilated pupils, unable to stand by the time I started treatment. By the time he arrived at the vet, the poison had passed through - he was in for observation overnight but fine within a few hours. A weekly superfood/parasite tonic for horses made up of vitamin powder, eggs, grated carrot and apple, molasses, bran, seeds, herbs and warm water. It was multi purpose - he was always free from parasites, had a shiny coat, and was generally strong and healthy, even during the worst of the winter cold and summer heat. A cat bitten by a snake - the vet was closed - another situation that I feared would have the worst outcome. I gave a homeopathic detox and the cat stopped shaking within half an hour and was back to normal by the next day. A tiger snake bite is often fatal in cats. Home made dog food restored health to ageing dogs. Wet food made of organic soy, vegetable stock, herbs and spices like turmeric, coconut and seeds. Dry biscuits made of a pastry of mixed vegetables, sweet potato, tahini, flax, sunflower, pepitas, coconut oil, high electrolyte Himalayan salt, peanut butter, maple syrup and apple cider vinegar.There is so much more that can and will be shared on this topic. Just know that all animals can be cared for using natural modalities - whether alone or alongside orthodox veterinary medicine. Please don't ever ignore your animal's health - all I can suggest is get started and like humans, you can improve their general health in all manner of ways. Their water should be filtered just like it should be for you. Their shampoos, drenches, treatments and other personal care should not be toxic. Their food should be organic, clean, as fresh as possible and actually healthy - not just fillers. #veganpets #healthypets #naturalhealthforpets

  • Female Health in a Patriarchal Industry

    Perhaps this article should be about just why modern medicine has specialised areas specifically for numerous female health issues – and why we fall for the medicalisation of our bodies – namely our reproductive systems. A few years back I was appalled to see yet another young woman being treated as a modern day hero on the TV, for having a mastectomy because of some theory that our genes dictate whether we have cancer or not. It’s not that her amazing acting skills or beauty are making people take note – it’s because she has been duped into thinking the whole cut/poison/burn mentality will offer her a longer life than her beautiful mum. As if removing one body part will stop cancer from developing somewhere else in the body – when the entire body is still as acidic and inflamed. How did it come to this? How did it become okay to suffer mutilation of one part, just in case – rather than changing your diet or lifestyle to improve your overall heath? Billions of pink dollars every day for some elusive medical cancer cure. On it goes. The answers are so simple IF you think about them logically. Diet can change our health at a cellular level – even a stem cell level. Antioxidants can physically change DNA from mutation to a healthy structure. Supplements can heal as sure as deficiency can kill. But no, have it cut away and go on believing it will be enough – I have lost count of the number of people who have had surgery only to succumb to the original disease. Yet they will happily accept that the doctor did all he/she could – ‘at least I was able to avoid cancer of that area – it could have been worse.’ It’s no surprise or miracle that an experienced natural health professional is able to deal with the WHOLE female regardless of how she presents. No need to make her feel that she needs to be mutilated or drugged to feel normal. The fact that teenage girls now have gynaecologists of their own shows how far this con has actualised. Mothers and Grandmothers no longer have the wisdom or even sound knowledge to teach their daughters well. That time-honoured instinctual skill has been eroded in favour of leaving it up to someone else. Infertility is at an all-time high thanks to this mismanagement. Young girls are now being put into menopause to cope with the damage. What EVERY mother should share with her daughters Female health is as badly managed as mental health. Imagine if you will, that there is a river with many streams running off in different directions. The main body of water should be cleaned (detoxed), and maintained (pro active supplementation and therapies) so the tributaries can remain pristine and healthy. But in medicine, those tributaries are cut off, filled with some spray or effort which covers up the original issue. The main body of water then becomes stagnant and dies off thanks to mismanagement. AND NO ONE BATS AN EYELID. So too with medicine. No holistic approach, no nurturing, no caring. Just mask, cut, poison, burn and hope for the best. And rather than referring to someone who just may be expert in that field, they take the reins and blunder on. Feel free to print off the following information of the NUMBER ONE female health issue today – from experience, 8/10 women will need further help, many of them suffering serious issues which are then being mismanaged to a point of crisis. By the time a ‘diagnosis’ is announced, you have forgotten about that unnecessary vaccine; the side effects of which include infertility, depression, cancer, and hormone disruption. Try suggesting that the chemicals in your personal care, furniture, household cleaning products or even your food could be responsible and see how quick you are sent off for psychiatric referral. Toxic world – toxic health – and your doctor does not care enough to wonder if this could be an issue? Do you have œstrogen dominance? What do obesity, depression, cancer, heart disease, stroke, candida, diabetes, ectopic pregnancy, IBS and thyroid disorder have in common? They are ALL linked to œstrogen dominance. They are ALL linked to œstrogen dominance. Do you take the birth control pill for any of the following (apart from the obvious of course) – Acne, painful periods, heavy periods, ovarian cysts, PMT/PMS, Irregular or absent periods, polycystic ovaries, fibrocystic breast disease, endometriosis, hormonal migraines, allergies, fatigue mood swings? Do you take HRT? Did you know that both the pill and HRT are linked to the following – that’s right, scientists have proven this but doctors either do not care or have not heard – Depression, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer, cervical cancer, skin cancer, bone cancer, lung cancer, coronary artery disease, candida, diabetes, immune dysfunction, liver toxicity, stroke, blood clots, osteoporosis, gum disease, high blood pressure, ectopic pregnancy, inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease thyroid disorders Both the birth control pill and HRT also cause nutrient deficiences that lead to, or aggravate, the following disorders – nutrient deficiency of zinc, selenium, magnesium, tyrosine, B1, B2, B6, folic acid, B12, C, E & K – which in turn cause the following – Nausea, vomiting, migraines, breast soreness, allergies, weight increase, libido issues, depression, hair loss, facial hair growth, vaginitis, DNA damage, cholesterol, elevated BP, sugar metabolism masculinising effects And, did you also know that the following disorders are ALL AGGRAVATED by both the pill and HRT – Epilepsy, migraine, asthma heart disease – and even once stopping, the damage is so extensive that symptoms may take years to go away. Now, if you go straight to a doctor who prescribes pills for these symptoms rather than even trying to undo what hormone disruption has done, you can be assured that within just a few years you will depend on these meds – and eventual side effects of them as well. If you have been prescribed (as an alarming number of women are) anti-depressants for any hormone-based issues (post-natal depression, mild depression, mood swings, etc) you need to be advised that suicide has had a 5 fold increase linked to patients taking anti-depressants, compared to those who manage it without drugs. Did you know that in order to cash in on the increasing number of women with PMS, Eli Lilly not only manipulated the mental health arena (thanks to SVU etc) but is responsible for thousands of suicides and mass killings? Even worse, the government was warned about this almost a decade before it happened but refused to take action. When the patent on Prozac was close to expiring, Eli Lilly repackaged all their Prozac, painted each pill pink (subliminal advertising and reassurance) and renamed it Sarafem. Now, our govts have know about this so long they have no excuse. But wait, there’s more – Eli Lilly cooked up a new disease – actually just PMS and all its associated symptoms, but named it Pre Menstrual Dysphoric Syndrome. At first, the mental health system refused to take it on board, but once the TV Show SVU agreed to write it into their storyling, along with the all-knowing psyche George, bam – it then became a sickness. What was the treatment? Yes – Sarafem… Now, if all of this is true (it is), why isn’t the public adequately warned? Why are these products not only still prescribed but also above and beyond natural alternatives? I’ve had the most gob-smacking lies told to my patients – even when alternatives succeeded where medicine failed. Doctors are not innocent in this awful con job – it has become fashionable (at medical ‘pushing’) for doctors to trick women and young girls into chemical castration for their own convenience – in effect, it stops monthly cycles – and this treatment is actually carcinogenic. Eventually not only is libido destroyed but hormones are so disrupted that women begin to resemble males thanks to destruction of female hormones. Finally, not only are HRT and the pill chemically identical (steroids, oestrogen and synthetic progestins), but are also present in our food. This is passed down generation to generation and through our food chain. The result of this poisoning equals many health issues – infertility, early onset puberty (the youngest one I have dealt with was 2 years old – that’s right – 2 years old, already menstruating) and cancer. The good news is that with the right protocol this can be reversed. Actually, there are many effective treatments. In fact, there is not a single health issue on this planet that could make me even consider using or recommending either of the above. This is the protocol that I advise to not only avoid but to care for these issues – * Plant based health tonics – this powerful combination is THE go-to recommendation at my clinic – regardless of your health issue, most find it is exactly what has caused the imbalance in the first place. This trio includes fucoidan (anti inflammatory, healing, regenerating), ORAC tonic (rainbow of nutrients, superfoods, antioxidants, pre/probiotics/herbals), and colloidal minerals. * Progesterone Cream – unlike regular synthetic or unrefined wild yam creams (of which I have trialled at different times with differing effects), the option is fast-acting and extremely effective. Yes, this takes a little effort and money to set up (nothing compared to what it could cost) but once you feel the benefits, you will make sure you can continue to follow this – it really is that good. Order directly online from the comfort of your own home or become a member and buy wholesale at your convenience. I guarantee by the end of the month you will feel like a new person. 1. Superfood multi for balance 2. Anti inflammatory fucoidan 3. Minerals, fulvates, cellular tonic. 4. Herbal hormone balancing 5. Strong hormone support (suitable for all ages) Don’t make the mistake of believing chopping out vital body parts will ever do what sound diet and sensible health protocols can do. Sadly it shows that even intellect, fame and wealth have little effect on your health! #Femalehealth #cancergene #breastcancergene #estrogendominance #oestrogendominance
